One area Leeds United’s recruitment team will be looking to improve this summer is the use of the Premier League loan market. Across last summer and the January window, Leeds brought in four players on loan from top-flight sides, and it would be fair to say only one of them really worked, in Joe Rodon. Rodon joined on a season-long-loan from Tottenham in August, establishing himself as a rock at the back as Leeds boasted the second best defensive record in the division. They are now keen to sign him permanently, as difficult as that might be. Djed Spence was the next to come through the door o...

Celtic have many players to thank for their part in an ultimately successful campaign under Brendan Rodgers this term. Following some testing times along the way, the Bhoys brought home a Scottish Premiership and Scottish Cup double, continuing their domination of the domestic landscape in the 21st century. Injury issues, lapses in form and external pressure at points couldn’t stop Celtic in their quest for success, with a wide range of contributions from the whole squad to credit for getting silverware over the line. Rodgers also has to take plaudits for the way he utilised the group, which w...

It’s set to be a busy summer for Manchester United in the transfer market, in regard to incomings and outgoings. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his Ineos mob have arrived at Old Trafford, and they’re set to take the reigns heading into a summer of transfer mania at Manchester United. The Red Devils need several different players, in a number of different positions. This season, the first-team squad depth was simply not good enough, and United were punished with a seriously unfavourable position in the league. So who could be the first signing of the summer? Who will Ratcliffe prioritise first? Well, we...

Leeds United have some important decisions to make on the contract front over the next month or so. With Stuart Dallas having confirmed his retirement last month, and Luke Ayling’s move to Middlesbrough already confirmed, there are now six players whose deals are expiring this summer, all of whom appeared for Leeds’ first team at some point over the course of the season. Liam Cooper is arguably the most high-profile name on the list, having just finished his 10th year at the club following a £600k arrival from Chesterfield in 2014. Cooper has already all but confirmed he will be departing his ...

Celtic will be on a break for the next few weeks before beginning pre-season preparations for the 2024/25 campaign. It seems surreal that the new season is already in the wider public conscience after last weekend’s Scottish Cup final triumph; however, football never stops, and neither does coverage of the Bhoys on 67 Hail Hail. Come pre-season, Brendan Rodgers will have a chance to evaluate his squad alongside getting valuable minutes into players’ legs ahead of another exciting year under his stewardship. On the transfer front, movement in both directions is expected. However, there is a cor...

Liverpool have a long list of talented youngsters on the scene, with Jurgen Klopp handing many of them their big break. During his lengthy tenure, the German played a key role in developing many young players from Melwood prospects into Anfield regulars.

The Dutchman will be keen to get going in pre-season as soon as possible, with Slot officially getting underway at the beginning of June. But he will be without many players early on due to their international commitments, one of which i...
